West Brom boss Clarke hails Lukaku impact for Spurs point

Clarke inspired an improved performance from his team in the second half after giving his side a rollicking at the break, and he also made a key impact on the game by bringing on Lukaku for Shane Long on the hour.

The Belgian teenager, snubbed by Andre Villas-Boas at Chelsea last season, used his hulking frame to give William Gallas a torrid time.

"We are pleased with Romelu," Clarke said. "It's great that you can look to your bench and see people who can change a game and Romelu is one of them. He did a good job for me, but so did Shane Long. He had the hardest part of the game."
